Very weird! Try opening a blank documetn and use Insert, File to get the
problem document into a new document. Does the problem still recur?
terry
: Tried that and lots of other suggestions; no go. Here is a summary of the
: problem and efforts to fix it to date. Only *some* documents produce a
: message when trying to spell check 'Cannot find MSSSpell32.dll' and later
: '...mgr**32.dll' or similar. I know enough now to know that these are
: language specific spell files probably on the document originator's HD and
: not on mine. In the documents where this problem occurs the spell check
: catches errors before the (foreign) word that invokes the problem, and not
: after. It says 'Word has completed spell check' even when I've placed
dummy
: badly spelt words after. Now, here's the rub: if I now delete the foreign
: words and indeed carefully check the document by hand and remove all
: spelling errors, I still get the problem and the message. Changing the
: language at my end does not help. Neither does pasting the document minus
: the last para mark into a new document. So the document must have hidden
: somewhere (not in the last para mark) in it a flag that says it needs a
: certain language add-in. Where is this flag and how do I remove/change
it?
: Or, what is the language being indicated, and how can it be changed?
